Game Notes & Other Thoughts - 11/23

A unique game when you get out shot 27-25 and win 7-1. Wish I could be there for the game tonight. Get your tickets for the rematch with the Sundogs a week from today (12/1) at the Allen Event Center.

- Arizona getting in a penalty filled game is not too wise. Allen is much better on special teams being number 2 in the league on both the power play & penalty kill. Last night Arizona was 1 for 7 on the power play while Allen was 3 for 9.
- When was the last time if ever the Americans had two players (Bootland & Howes) with 5 points in a game
- The Americans have allowed the fewest goals (35) in the CHL. Next closest team is at 42.
- Aaron Dell now leads the league with a 1.87 goals against average
- After these two penalty filled games with Arizona the Americans lead the league in penalty minutes (298)
- Brett Skinner is third in the league in points (20) while Darryl Bootland &  Scotty Howes are tied for 5th in points (19) after their big night
- Brett Skinner (14 assists) and Tyler Ludwig (10 assists) are first & second in the league for defensemen
- Scotty Howes leads the league with 10 goals in just 12 games
- Brian McMillin still leads the CHL in scoring percentage with 4 goals on 9 shots
- "I love getting jumped!" Garret Clarke's post-game twitter post after getting sucker punched in the second period
